Over on CAPS, 31 of the 83 All-Star members who have rated Mohawk -- some 37% -- believe the stock will underperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bears include therailsplitter and DemonDoug, both of whom are ranked in the top 1% of our community.

It is actually priced quite fairly right now if it were either stable or growing, but as I anticipate negative growth the intrinsic value will decline and hence the stock price. I'm not exactly sure why there was such a run up unless hedge funds are going crazy competing against each other and a bunch of shorts got squeezed.

In a pitch from one day earlier, DemonDoug shares that contrarian sentiment:

With the absolutely insane rally in things related to housing over the past few days, I wanted to find the one stock that has gone up way, way too fast. [Mohawk] fits that bill, it is WAY overbought, its fundamentals are terrible, and while it is a good company within its industry, its main customers (homebuilder companies) are buying less and less of its products. They offered guidance that is way out of line with reality, they lost money last quarter, and even if they reduce their expenses, will it be fast enough to turn a profit over the next 2 quarters? Questionable.

One final piece of data for you to ponder:EPS (ttm): -21.32

Does that look like a company you want to own?
